The hybrid speaker 100 in one implementation of the present disclosure includes a high-frequency portion and a low-frequency portion. The high-frequency portion is configured to output high-frequency sound, the high-frequency portion includes a balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 includes a first diaphragm 42, and the first diaphragm 42 vibrates to output the high-frequency sound. The low-frequency portion is configured to output mid-frequency sound and/or low-frequency sound, the low-frequency portion includes a moving-coil unit-structure 50, and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 includes a second diaphragm 52 and a magnetic driving portion. The balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is configured as the magnetic driving portion of the moving-coil unit-structure 50, and the magnetic driving portion drives the second diaphragm 52 to vibrate to output the mid-frequency sound and/or the low-frequency sound. Therefore, a magnetic driving portion of the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is used for the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40, and is also configured as the magnetic driving portion of the moving-coil unit-structure 50, that is, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 share the magnetic driving portion.

[0032] The hybrid speaker 100 provided in the present disclosure includes the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50. The balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is configured as the magnetic driving portion of the moving-coil unit-structure 50, that is, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 share the magnetic driving portion. Therefore, firstly, the moving-coil unit-structure 50 enables the hybrid speaker 100 to have excellent and powerful mid-low frequency sound, and the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 enables the hybrid speaker 100 to have smooth high-frequency sound; secondly, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 share the magnetic driving portion, which not only greatly reduces manufacturing costs of the hybrid speaker 100, but also reduces an internal space of the hybrid speaker 100 occupied by the magnetic driving portion, and can further reduce the volume of the hybrid speaker 100 to comply with a miniaturization trend of products.

In this implementation, the first shell 30 is cylindrical, the moving-coil unit-structure 50 further includes a voice coil 54 connected to the second diaphragm 52, and the voice coil 54 is partially sleeved outside the first shell 30. Since the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is disposed in the inner cavity of the first shell 30, and at least a part of the voice coil 54 is axially sleeved outside the first shell 30, the magnetic driving portion of the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 forms a magnetic field around the first shell 30, and the magnetic field is the magnetic driving portion of the moving-coil unit-structure 50. When the voice coil 54 is electrified, the magnetic driving portion can drive the voice coil 54 to vibrate in the axial direction of second shell 20.

[0034] Please refer to FIGS. 2 to 5 together, where FIG. 4 is a perspective schematic structural view of the second shell 20 in FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 is a perspective schematic structural view of the second shell 20 in FIG. 4 from another perspective.

In other implementations, the top wall 221 may be, but is not limited to, an elliptic plate, a polygonal plate, or a waist-shaped plate, and the side wall 223 surrounds an edge of the top wall 221.

[0037] As illustrated in FIGS. 2, 4, and 5, the side wall 223 includes a first cylinder 2231 surrounding an edge of the top wall 221, and a second cylinder 2233 below the first cylinder 2231, and a connecting plate 2234 connected between the first cylinder 2231 and the second cylinder 2233.

Preferably, the multiple first sound holes 2201 are arranged at equal intervals. The second cylinder 2233 defines a positioning groove 2235 at a lower end of the inner circumferential wall of the second cylinder 2233, the positioning groove 2235 is defined in a circumferential direction of the second cylinder 2233, and the periphery of the second diaphragm 52 is connected to the positioning groove 2235. Preferably, the periphery of the second diaphragm 52 is positioned in the positioning groove 2235 via a connecting pad 521.

[0038] Preferably, an inner surface of the top wall 221 defines a wire groove 2214 communicating with the second sound hole 2203, and the wire groove 2214 is configured to accommodate a wire. In this implementation, the wire groove 2214 extends in a radial direction of the top wall 221 and communicates with the second sound hole 2203.

[0039] Preferably, the side wall 223 defines a wire outlet 2237 at a position of the side wall 223 away from the top wall 221, and the wire outlet 2237 is configured for insertion of a wire.

[0040] As illustrated in FIG. 2, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 includes a first coil 43 and a second coil 44 that are disposed in the second inner cavity 35 of the first shell 30, the first coil 43 is coaxial with the second coil 44, and the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 are disposed at two opposite sides of the first diaphragm 42. A first gap 422 is defined between the first coil 43 and the second coil 44, and the first diaphragm 42 is disposed in the first gap 422. In this implementation, the first diaphragm 42 is a circular superconducting magnetic miniature amorphous ultrathin alloy flat film, the first coil 43, the second coil 44, and the first diaphragm 42 are coaxial, and the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 are electrified to drive the first diaphragm 42 to vibrate, so as to generate sound.

[0041] Further, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 further includes a first magnet 45 sleeved outside the first coil 43 and a second magnet 46 sleeved outside the second coil 44, the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 are accommodated in the second inner cavity 35 of the first shell 30, and the first gap 422 is defined between the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46. In this implementation, both the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 are magnet rings, and the first coil 43, the first magnet 45, the second coil 44, the second magnet 46, and the first diaphragm 42 are coaxial. A magnetic field is formed around the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46, one end of the voice coil 54 away from the second diaphragm 52 is movably sleeved around a magnetic conductive plate 33, and when the voice coil 54 is electrified, the voice coil 54 vibrates axially in the magnetic field formed by the first magnet 45 and the second magnet to drive the second diaphragm 52 to vibrate, so as to generate sound. An outer side refers to a side facing the same direction as a sound-emitting direction of the hybrid speaker 100, and an inner side refers to a side facing an opposite direction to the sound-emitting direction of the hybrid speaker 100.

[0042] The first diaphragm 42 is disposed between the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46, the first coil 43 is sleeved in an inner cavity of the first magnet 45, and the second coil 44 is sleeved in an inner cavity of the second magnet 46, so as to cooperate to form the high-frequency portion. One end of the voice coil 54 is connected to the second diaphragm 52, and one end of the voice coil 54 away from the second diaphragm 52 is movably sleeved around the first shell 30, so as to cooperate to form the low-frequency portion. Therefore, the high-frequency portion and the low-frequency portion share a magnetic driving portion, that is, the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 not only cooperate with the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 of the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40, but also cooperate with the voice coil 52 of the moving-coil unit-structure 50. The balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 share the magnetic driving portion, so that the manufacturing costs of the hybrid speaker 100 are reduced, and an internal space of the second shell 20 occupied by the magnetic driving portion is reduced, thereby complying with the miniaturization trend of products. When the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 are electrified, the first diaphragm 42 is magnetized, so that the first diaphragm 42 is subject to a force between the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 to enable the first diaphragm 42 to vibrate axially up and down, and the force directly acts on the first diaphragm 42, so that there is no transmission loss and no transmission delay, resulting in better high-frequency transient and extension. In addition, the force is evenly distributed throughout the first diaphragm 42, and thud the hybrid speaker 100 has an innate advantage in dynamic and sound information volume.

[0043] Preferably, the first diaphragm 42 is made of a flexible high polymer material, thereby enabling the hybrid speaker 100 to have smooth high-frequency sound. The periphery of the second diaphragm 52 is connected to the inner circumferential wall of the second shell 20. One end of the voice coil 54 is connected to the second diaphragm 52, the other end of the voice coil 54 is movably sleeved around the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46, and the voice coil 54 is a coil wound by an insulated wire. When a variable audio signal is input into the voice coil 54, the voice coil 54 is magnetized, and the magnetic field of the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 enables the voice coil 54 to be forced to drive the second diaphragm 52 to vibrate to generate sound. As such, the moving-coil unit-structure 50 has an excellent and powerful low-frequency. The hybrid speaker 100 of the present disclosure not only has an excellent and powerful low-frequency, but also has a smooth high-frequency.

[0044] Optionally, the second diaphragm 52 is made of a lightweight and flexible high polymer material. The second diaphragm 52 may be a single-layer composite or a multi-layer composite. The second diaphragm 52 may be integrally formed or independently formed in structure.

Specifically, the magnetic conductive plate 33 is made of a magnetic conductive material such as an iron plate, and the magnetic conductive plate 33 is configured to adjust the magnetic field of the second magnet 46 and the first magnet 45, so that most of magnetic field lines of the second magnet 46 and the first magnet 45 pass through the magnetic conductive plate 33 to be conducted to surroundings of the voice coil 54, thereby implementing the function of the magnetic driving portion in the moving-coil unit-structure 50.

[0058] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the hybrid speaker 100 further includes a rear cover 70, the rear cover 70 fits with the side wall 223, and the rear cover defines a sound-adjusting hole 75. Specifically, the rear cover 70 includes a back plate 71 and an edge plate 73 surrounding the back plate 71. The back plate 71 and the edge plate 73 form a box-like structure.

In this implementation, the first sound-adjusting member 81, the second sound-adjusting member 83, and the third sound-adjusting member 85 each are a sound-adjusting net.

[0060] Please refer to FIGS. 1-3 and 7-8 together, when the hybrid speaker 100 is assembled, the circuit board assembly 90 is installed to the second shell 20. Specifically, the first circuit board 91 is fixedly attached to the outer side of the top wall 221, and the through hole 912 is aligned with the second sound hole 2203. The second circuit board 93 is fixedly attached to the outer side of the connecting plate 2234. The first shell 30 accommodating the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is accommodated in the inner cavity of the second shell 20, the wire 432 of the first coil 43 passes through the second sound hole 2203 along the wire groove 2214 and the wire slot 913 to be connected to the first solder pad 915, and the wire 442 of the second coil 44 passes through the second sound hole 2203 along the wire groove 2214 and the wire slot 913 to be connected to the second solder pad 916. One end of the connecting cylinder 31 away from the magnetic conductive plate 33 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the top wall 221, so that an inner cavity of the first coil 43 faces the second sound hole 2203. In this case, the annular second gap 601 is defined between the outer circumferential surface of the first shell 30 and the inner circumferential surface of the first cylinder 2231. The moving-coil unit-structure 50 is installed in the positioning groove 2235 of the second cylinder 2233 via the connecting pad 521. The connecting pad 521 may be fixed to the second shell 20 by means of adhesive, clamping, or the like, so that the second diaphragm 52 is fixedly connected to the second shell 20. One end of the voice coil 54 away from the second diaphragm 52 may be movably inserted into the second gap 601, the magnetic conductive plate 33 of the first shell 30 extends at least to a middle position in an axial direction of the voice coil 54, and a wire connected to the voice coil 54 passes through the wire outlet 2237 and is then connected to the third solder pad 931 of the second circuit board 93. The rear cover 70 covers a rear side of the moving-coil unit-structure 50. Specifically, the edge plate 73 of the rear cover 70 is clamped in the positioning groove 2235 and abuts against the periphery of the second diaphragm 52, so that the rear cover 70 is fixed to the rear side of the second shell 20. Finally, the first sound hole 2201, the second sound hole 2203, and the sound-adjusting hole 75 are each covered with a sound-adjusting member.

[0061] In this case, an axis of the second diaphragm 52 is collinear with an axis of the first diaphragm 42, that is, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 are arranged in an axial direction of the second shell 20. The balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is disposed at a front side of the moving-coil unit-structure 50. The second inner cavity 35 of the first shell 30 communicates with the second sound hole 2203, and sound generated by vibration of the first diaphragm 42 is emitted out of the second sound hole 2203 through the second inner cavity 35. The first inner chamber 201 of the second shell 20 communicates the first sound hole 2201, and sound generated by vibration of the second diaphragm 52 is emitted out of the first sound hole 2201.

[0062] When no current flows through the first coil 43 and the second coil 44, the first diaphragm 42 is neutralized, and the first diaphragm 42 is located in the middle of the first gap 422 through balance of an up magnetic field of the first magnet 45 and a down magnetic field of the second magnet 46 and a restoring force of the first diaphragm 42. When an external audio signal is applied to the first circuit board 91, audio current pass through each of the first coil 43 and the second coil 44, the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 each generate a magnetic field which changes with the audio current, and the magnetic field and the magnetic fields of the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 generate an interaction force. This force causes the first diaphragm 42 to vibrate along with the audio current in the magnetic fields of the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46, vibration of the first diaphragm 42 generates sound having the same waveform as an original audio signal. Specifically, when the current on the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 is in a positive period, a direction of the inner magnetic field direction of the first coil 43 and a direction of the inner magnetic field direction of the second coil 44 face each other towards an inner side, the first diaphragm 42 is N-polarized, and therefore the first diaphragm 42 moves towards the front side. When the current on the first coil 43 and the second coil 44 is in a negative period, the direction of the inner magnetic field direction of the first coil 43 and the direction of the inner magnetic field direction of the second coil 44 are opposite to each other towards an outside, the first diaphragm 42 is S-polarized, and therefore the first diaphragm 42 moves towards the rear side. In this way, the first diaphragm 42 may vibrate along with the audio current to generate the sound having the same waveform as the original audio signal, and the sound is output from the second sound hole 2203. In addition, a direction of magnetization may be changed according an arrangement direction of magnetic poles of the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46.

[0063] Because one end of the voice coil 54 away from the second diaphragm 52 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first shell 30, the voice coil 54 is disposed in the magnetic fields generated by the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46. When an external audio signal is applied to the second circuit board 93, audio current flows on the voice coil 54, the voice coil 54 generates a magnetic field that changes with the audio current. The magnetic field and a magnetic circuit generated by the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46 generate an interaction force, and the force causes the voice coil 54 to vibrate up and down with the audio current. The second diaphragm 52 is connected to the voice coil 54, and therefore the voice coil 54 drives the second diaphragm 52 to vibrate, and vibration of the second diaphragm 52 generate sound having the same waveform as the original audio signal. The sound is emitted out of the first sound hole 2201.

[0064] In the present disclosure, since the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 share the first magnet 45 and the second magnet 46, the thickness of the moving-coil unit-structure 50 is reduced by at least 2 millimeters, thereby reducing the space occupied by the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 arranged axially, and reducing the volume of the hybrid speaker 100. The first diaphragm 42 has a relatively large radial area, so that a sound pressure of the first diaphragm 42 can be further improved, a high frequency response is greatly widened, and a frequency response is greatly improved in a frequency band from 8 KHz to 40KHz. Further, the second diaphragm 52 has a radial area larger than the first diaphragm 42, so that the second diaphragm 52 has a greater motion displacement, and thus the moving-coil unit-structure 50 has a powerful and excellent low frequency.

[0065] The balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 of the hybrid speaker 100 is applicable to a high-frequency part and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 of the hybrid speaker 100 is applicable to a mid-low-frequency part, that is, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 and the moving-coil unit-structure 50 can focus on respective sound domains independently and emit sound coaxially. The inner diameter of the voice coil 54 is greater than the diameter of the first diaphragm 42, so that the voice coil 54 with a greater inner diameter specializes in delivering an elastic, rich, and full low frequency, and the first diaphragm 42 specializes in high-frequency transient and high resolution, resulting in a naturally wide sound field.

[0066] As illustrated in FIG. 9, the present disclosure also provides an audio reproduction device 300. The audio reproduction device 300 includes a housing 301 and a hybrid speaker 100. The housing 301 defines an inner cavity and a sound channel 303 communicating with the inner cavity. The hybrid speaker 100 is disposed in the inner cavity of the housing 301. The first sound hole 2201 and the second sound hole 2203 of the hybrid speaker 100 communicate with the sound channel 303. Sound generated by the hybrid speaker 100 enters the sound channel 303 through the first sound hole 2201 and the second sound hole 2203, and then is output from the sound channel 303.

[0067] The audio reproduction device 300 further includes a battery 305 electrically connected to the hybrid speaker 100, and the battery 305 is configured to supply power to the hybrid speaker 100 and other electronic devices. Because the volume of the hybrid speaker 100 is reduced, that is, the space of the inner cavity of the housing 301 occupied by the hybrid speaker 100 is reduced, the volume of the battery 305 can be increased, so as to improve the endurance of the audio reproduction device 300; or when the the volume of the battery 305 is not changed, the layout of other electronic devices can be facilitated, or the overall volume of the audio reproduction device 300 can be further reduced.

[0068] In this implementation, the audio reproduction device 300 is an earphone, the housing 301 of the earphone is provided with a sound-transmission tube along the sound channel 303, and an ear cap 306 is sleeved on the sound-transmission tube. When the earphone is inserted into the user's ear canal through the cap 306, the balanced-diaphragm unit-structure 40 is closer to the sound channel 303 than the moving-coil unit-structure 50, that is, the first diaphragm 42 of the hybrid speaker 100 is located in front of a mid-low frequency moving-coil diaphragm system, and is closer to the user's ear canal. Therefore, a path through which a sound wave passes is shortened, so that the sound is clearer, and user experience is improved.

[0069] In other implementations, the audio reproduction device 300 may also be a loudspeaker box or the like, and the hybrid speaker 100 in the present disclosure may be applied to electronic products that need to emit sound, such as a computer, a television, and a mobile phone.

[0070] The foregoing are implementations of the present disclosure. It should be noted that, a person of ordinary skill in the art may further make improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the implementations of the present disclosure, and these improvements and modifications shall also belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
